Anyone have any other ideas on this? I'm having the same issue for the last 2 days ever since I ran the ICS RUU and JB OTA. I've tried everything from different RUUs to radios to firmwares, full resets, and what not but I still can't get it to stick to a 3G signal. At most it will stay for a few seconds, maybe a minute or two, then either switch back to 2G (or go dead if it's on WCDMA only mode).

My phone is no longer in warranty so that's not an option... I'm willing to try anything else at this point cuz it's driving me insane.

Edit: This is really weird but I decided to run a JB RUU and then unplug my phone halfway through. Rebooted without an issue and bizarrely, 3G appears to be back and stable... for now anyway.

Edit 2: Spoke to soon, after about 30 minutes it went back to no 3G :(
[HTC One S] SaHiLzZ:
Same issue... http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2330500
[HTC One S] :
Same problem after running the latest RUU... Always on Edge with the automatic mode and when I try to force 3g, the signal simply goes off.

The strange thing is that now and then I'm able to stay on 3G for a few seconds before it goes off.

Is sending the phone to reparation the only solution?

Anyone has been able to get there 3g/H+ signal back?

I've tried flashing some radios, new roms, some other kernel without any help.

My phone is S-offed with a supercid, not sure if that affects anything.

Would be really nice to get some help on this bug as it's pretty annoying I must say

***EDIT*** I have been able to get my H+/3g signal for a few minutes by simply reverting to my default CID. After that, it went back to only EDGE again
[HTC One S] Pedro2NR:
I've read through the whole thread to fix my T-Mobile HTC ONE S. I was on 2G like everyone else reporting. I stopped using the phone for months and decided to try PAC-Man ROM. Success, I saw 3G and H+ but I get no bars.

I would reboot my phone and no bars. Then I fixed my APN settings and got signal again. However, it didn't last. It comes and goes but most of the time it is not working.

Can't seem to fix my phone.
[HTC One S] :
As the problem is still there after flashing radios, ROMs, etc., it's almost sure that it is a hardware issue.

I send mine to reparation (already the second time because they didn't even read the problem's description the first time... :good:).

I'll post whether it solves the problem or not when the phone comes back.
[HTC One S] skaters05:
Good luck! This worked for me.. so hopefully it will be fixed this time around.
[HTC One S] ADDICT.ANK:
Try using specific mcc and mnc for this.

Be Humble and Hit thanks if you find the post helpful or if I helped u.:)

A click for u but rep for me
[HTC One S] GabeyC:
I'm not sure how exactly you should be installing an RUU. It seems like most of them come in executables form but I'm running mac so that's not an option. Which RUU should I try to get for my phone if I'm running the latest kernel and how should I install it?

Also, what exactly would mcc and mnc be?

Thanks
[HTC One S] ADDICT.ANK:
First try this mcc and mnc .its fast dormancy. Fix code of ur carrier supporting them.try wikipedia and select the codes and enter them in ur fast dormancy custom_f.txt

It should fix ur issue.

If not

Only then flash the modem file and. Ur done.

[HTC One S] cookiE17:
OK I had this exact same problem with my One S, but I have T-Mobile. I decided to S-Off, super CID, and upgrade firmware all in one swoop (probably not the smartest, but oh well). When I flashed new CM rom, connected at nothing but Edge. Tried new radio, reflashing, going back to stock CID, re-doing all of my previous steps, new ROMS, new kernals, build prop fixes, etc. etc. etc. and nothing worked.

Finally I just decided to revert back to a stock RUU, I went back to Stock CID, but remained S-Off, and on HBoot 2.15. I flashed the RUU titled OTA_Ville_U_JB_45_S_TMOUS_3.14.531.11_1.13.50.05.3 1_10.30.50.08L_release_3095152gf3d5egc1kw6ovn.zip (it won't let me post links yet).

I did not have to relock my device because it was S-Off. Upon rebooting phone with the stock RUU, i was connecting at H+. Re-rooted, flashed CM, and its back to H+ now. Speeds still seem slower than they should be with H+, but im just glad to be off edge. Lived with it like that for about 10 days and was about to go crazy. Hopefully this helps someone else, because I came up with nothing on all the forums.

---------- Post added at 10:19 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:15 AM ----------

Get your phone into fastboot mode (bootloader). Then launch the RUU executable and it should do the rest. If you have an unlocked bootloader you will need to "oem lock" your phone to relock the bootloader. Not sure how you would do it on a MAC. The process does not take more than ~15 min, so maybe borrow a friends PC. Hope that helps.
[HTC One S] ADDICT.ANK:
U didnt tried flashing the modem instead.anyways stay on stock for a while.
[HTC One S] GabeyC:
Sorry but your post is really vague. I have no clue what exactly is mcc and mnc?? As for fast dormancy, I did try to edit those settings within the build.prop file that were suppose to work based on the post containing all the radios. That did not seem to fix anything.

As for flashing the modem file, I'm guessing this has to do with mcc and mnc? That is really not clear, sorry :(

I went back to stock CID, I'm still S-Off and I have HBoot 2.15. The only problem is that I can't seem to find an RUU that would fit my current radio. I'm guessing the RUU I should be flashing is:

OTA_Ville_U_JB_45_S_Rogers_WWE_3.16.631.8_1.11.50.05.28_10.27.50.08L_release_301897nn5lu23br8cg9q7l.zip

Thing is, there is no .exe in the zip file and I tried to install it via this method without any success:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2394165

The only .exe available for my carrier (Rogers/Fido) are these ones:

RUU_Ville_U_Rogers_WWE_1.70.631.1_Radio_0.16.31501S.02_10.18.31501S.08L_release_254139_signed.exe

RUU_Ville_U_Rogers_WWE_1.84.631.9_Radio_0.17.31501S.10_2_10.27.31501S.10L_release_265373_signed.exe

Since the radio is not the same and they seem like older version, I doubt that I can simply flash them. Could anyone provide me with some help? :)

Thanks
[HTC One S] dr3amsINdigital:
Same here... I'm about to send mine in for repair a second time. I sent it in once already and they didn't fix anything even though they claimed that they replaced the motherboard.
[HTC One S] aloy1455:
got my phone back from HTC today and back with 4G!
[HTC One S] Pedro2NR:
Congrats! I know I was frustrated when my phone didn't work.
[HTC One S] GabeyC:
Still no one has been able to fix this by themselves?

I don't have a warranty anymore so sending it is not an option or are HTC repairs cheap?
[HTC One S] aloy1455:
I didn't have a warranty. I bought my phone on eBay over a year ago, so this probably means I don't have a warranty. so give it a shot.
[HTC One S] dr3amsINdigital:
Actually, the HTC warranty is 15 months. That's what they told me when I called. I bought my phone from Craigslist.
[HTC One S] GabeyC:
So you called them, gave them your serial number and sent it?

I will call them today, could someone help me getting my phone back to stock, I'm not sure of what steps to take to get it back to stock...
[HTC One S] ADDICT.ANK:
Use ruu and flash the stock rom.with full wipe..

Download carefully do a double check of the rom that it is specifically for ur device model

Can someone be kind to submit the phone number so others can reference to it directly from here?

Yes, they'll be able to tell if you're still under warranty from your IMEI.

The US number is 1-866-449-8358.

Try going into the Dialer and entering *#*#4636#*#*. When you're in , hit *Phone Information* and scroll all the way to the bottom. If you're stuck on 2G try to change it from *GSM Only* to *WCDMA Preferred*
[HTC One S] GabeyC:
The only RUU for my phone are these:

They are older version, I don't think I can flash them. That's exactly my problem, nobody has been able to help me on that....

No, that's not the problem, it is already at WCDMA Preferred, the problem is clearly something else
[HTC One S] ADDICT.ANK:
Can u tell me whats ur kernel baseband..

And i would suggest u that u flash the radio seperately which worked for u earlier..or flash the basic. From. The Ruu which u have mentioned..and also do this its quite obvious as sometimes we forget the obvious things so from settings change ur network settings to wcdma/gsm preffered...and click on select network. U'll get ur operator list from there select ur operator showing 3g on side..and then try using ur browser..do this first..

And let me know pls..

Be Humble and Hit thanks if you find the post helpful or if I helped u.:)

A click for u but rep for me
[HTC One S] GabeyC:
Baseband version is: 1.15.50.05.29_10.30.50.08L

Kernel version is: 3.4.11-g24aadf2 build03@cyanogenmod #1

I never flashed any new radio until the problem occured. The problem was there BEFORE I flashed any other radio, I doubt that's the problem. It didn't seem like flashing other radio was working anyway.

No, clearly it's not a settings thing, I've been through a lot and I know for sure it's not a settings thing.

I still haven't figured out how to get back to stock completly, can someone help me?
[HTC One S] ADDICT.ANK:
Well it would be better if you use the stock kernel instead of cm as it have some issues which are still in progress of fixing....

and once try to manually select your mobile network pls...for once..

for reverting to stock here's the link it's a bit old, but will revert you back to stock..

and choose ur ruu carefully..

http://androidforums.com/one-s-all-things-root/691874-guide-how-run-ruu-your-htc-one-s.html

try it and post...
[HTC One S] GabeyC:
I can run a RUU with a different radio version?? Like I told you, the only RUU available for my carrier (Rogers/Fido) is pretty old, that is still ok?

As for the settings, I've tried it, if I force WCDMA, it will go to H+ 3G for some time and then simply stay grey and I can't access anything.
[HTC One S] ADDICT.ANK:
Yes u can run that ruu its ok to use.

U are using a cm kernel as it does have connectivity issues.. So revert to stock..pls

Did u tried any 3rd party app for switching between 3g and 2g. Also. ?

And i meant from mobile network settings u will get a list of mobile network carriers. Some with 3g some not. If ur carrier shows it then select it.

It would work..

Also make a search for the radio thats stable..
[HTC One S] GabeyC:
Where could I find the stock kernel? Is the stock kernel up to 3.4 or is it only in development kernels that are 3.4?

As for the list of mobile network carriers, I guess you mean the access points right? I tried changing those without any success.

As for the radio, I tried a few of them, didn't change anything as well.
[HTC One S] ADDICT.ANK:
Not access point. Its network operators.

Correct me if i am wrong..

Well take a look at the link

I would say that u make a backup of current rom and evrything else 2.

http://trickdroid.org/tag/htc-one-s/

And post.hope it will help.
[HTC One S] GabeyC:
Just so I know, did you simply send your phone to HTC directly or did you go through your carrier?

I called HTC and they really didn't know anything about that, the guy tried to make me do really basic stuff, after I told him the steps i've been through, he simply told me to send it through a store of my carrier. Not sure how it would turn out if I do that, I don't really want to end up paying for that, although the phone is pretty useless now though.
[HTC One S] aloy1455:
I went through HTC. I told em the latest update ruined my data, and that I was stuck on 2G after the update. They walked me through ALL of the steps that did not do anything. they told me to go to my carrier, and I lied and told HTC that I went to TMOBILE. I told em that they didn't help me. so then they emailed me with an RMA number and a shipping address.

got my phone back with S-On and HBOOT 2.15 and back to default CID. I don't know what they did.
[HTC One S] ADDICT.ANK:
They would have reverted it to completely stock.

Well cheers man u got S On again.

So enjoy and check wat network its set to. Wcdma and gsm or only gsm

And the baseband. Is it still the same or not.
[HTC One S] GabeyC:
I'll give it a try tomorrow, how do you get back to S-on, can't seem to figure it out?
[HTC One S] aloy1455:
they gave it back to me S-On. I gave it to them S-Off.
[HTC One S] booenson:
What did your bootloader say? Relocked with no tampered?
[HTC One S] aloy1455:
I sent it to them with this info:

"Relocked"

S-OFF

CID 11111111

HBOOT 2.15

Radio: 1.13
[HTC One S] GabeyC:
You reinstalled your RUU?

You put back the stock ROM?
[HTC One S] aloy1455:
yes
[HTC One S] GabeyC:
Calling them tomorrow, thanks for the advice guys, much appreciated!

I'll give some news tomorrow as to whether they send me the RMA or not and let you know
[HTC One S] booenson:
Any news?
[HTC One S] GabeyC:
HTC does not want to send me an RMA or anything through warranty, they said that if I sent it to them, i'd have to pay, even though they have no clue whether my warranty is over or not (it's supposed to be over). They said to go to my phone carrier which I'll be doing, but I'm starting to lose hope...

I'll let you know what the carrier says, but I doubt they'll send it for free.

Plus I still haven't set my phone back to stock, you might get a PM for some help ;)

*EDIT* I'm really thinking this has something to do with S-OFF, is it easy to get back to S-ON, didn't find any thread/help about it?
[HTC One S] ADDICT.ANK:
Well use ruu to revert back. Then turn s on as it should do that.
[HTC One S] booenson:
I don't think S-OFF had anything to do with it personally, I've been looking through numerous threads about people with the same problem as us, and I'm pretty sure it's a hardware problem. I lost 3G connectivity after updating to the 4.1.1 OTA from Rogers. I noticed it right away because when I'd receive a text my speakers would go off from the interference, and that never happened beforehand.

Unfortunately too, I think we both have the same hboot (2.15), and there isn't a Rogers RUU available. I'd rather not go S-OFF and change the cid and run another RUU, I'd rather not risk bricking my phone. This Friday I'll be sending my phone in for repair and we'll see what HTC says about it, my bootloader is relocked but still says tampered
[HTC One S] dr3amsINdigital:
I finally got my phone back from HTC for the second time and I finally have 4G again!

I didn't lose 4G from s-off, i lost it by running an RUU of a version known to get your phone stuck on 2G. https://t-mobile.jive-mobile.com/#jive-document?content=/api/core/v2/documents/5224
[HTC One S] ADDICT.ANK:
So basicaly never use an ruu unless u are confirm of its compatibility.
[HTC One S] dr3amsINdigital:
The RUU was compatible... It was known to cause issues with 4G and was previously discontinued by HTC, but I didn't know that at the time. I needed to get back to stock and someone suggested I use that RUU because it was the latest out at the time.
[HTC One S] ADDICT.ANK:
No prob.

U got s-on and got the stock connectivity back so enjoy...

Well its a nice help for the htc users though..

We learn either in a easy way or the hard way..
[HTC One S] omfgitsanunlock:
I have the same problem after doing everything I know. I need to know what version of the RUU we used, I cannot access that Tmobile link you provided. I'm on the phone with HTC and they need the RUU to confirm that its a known issue. Please help.
[HTC One S] dr3amsINdigital:
This link should work: http://support.t-mobile.com/docs/DOC-5224 The RUU was 2.35.531.7 710RD. Good luck!
[HTC One S] add114:
I'm follwed that web but didn't work for me

May be all peoples had this problem ask for htc center update software for fix it, possible?
[HTC One S] rautiocination:
success!

o was in the process of updating my (facepalm) S-OFF CM 10.1 to CM 10.2 when it somehow managed to get in stuck in 2G exactly how everyone describes; i have no idea how it happened (or when really, lots of tinkering in fastboot) but in the end i was stuck with 2G in every ROM/radio/RUU i managed to put on my phone today. I even reverted fully to stock, then the latest OTA, then moonshine S-OFFed it and tried cm-10.2 again; no dice.

eventually decided I would just revert to stock again (since i technically have week left on my HTC 12 month manufacturer warranty) and did so in the most thorough way possible; a gradual upgrading through RUU exe's from androidruu (.com)

I reset to stock CID, S-ON and relocked, and was prepared to go through every TMOUS exe in the above archive

RUU_Ville_U_TMOUS_1.53.531.16_Radio_0.16.31501S.02_10.18.31501S.08L_release_262073_signed.exe (this was the only one i thought i would _have_ to do since the others wouldn't touch my 2.15 HBOOT, but this seemed to overwrite it fine)

after i flashed RUU_Ville_U_TMOUS_1.84.531.2_R2_Radio_0.16.31501S.16_2_10.22.31501S.10L_release_263233_signed.exe i noticed i was getting NO service, I noticed i was getting no service at all so decided to try fiddling with all the settings, i was not expecting it to work but after a reboot it is now running 4G/H+ again!

pbviously this isn't a scientific process (and i was only half paying attention at the end since i had all but given up hope) but i just figured i'd post this here since I hadn't heard of anyone managing to reverse the 2G curse . . . i don't figure the HTC/Tmobile intervention ones are "fixed" but rather replaced.

now here's hoping i don't break it again it upgrading back to how it was :P good luck people, keep hope alive!
[HTC One S] GabeyC:
How exactly do you S-ON the device? And you can flash any RUU even though it's a really old one? Because I relocked, stock CID but didn't manage to S-ON my device. Also, I wasn't sure if I could flash my RUU because it's an old one for Rogers, does it have anything to do? I'm not sure what exactly is an RUU, but if I have a 3.4 kernel, can I still revert to older version of an RUU? Does it have anything to do with my radio version as well? Mine is the latest, 1.15 or something.

Thanks for the help
[HTC One S] rautiocination:
i think i removed s-off with the all in one tool. and relocked the bootloader using oem fastboot commands (type "fastboot oem h" to see a list, i believe it was "fastboot oem lock")

the RUU's are sorta tricky, but i had better luck with the EXE's from the archive i mentioned before, i wasn't expecting it to work but it did manager to drop my hboot/radio to the numbers i was expecting each time (correlating with the equivilant OEM firmware update)

it is worth noting i am still not out of the woods yet, i haven't found that magic combo to get back to hboot with full service (having SIM card problems now i've been finding) and a few boot loops (might go all the way back to the original firmware and work my way back up)
[HTC One S] :
Always the same issue for me after sending the phone in reparation for the second time.... They even forgot to attach the report that explains the operations done, so I don't know if they were actually trying to resolve the problem. Under these conditions, I totally lost confidence in the french HTC repair service...

As the problem appeared after running the main Jelly Bean RUU (RUU_Ville_U_JB_45_S_HTC_Europe_3.16.401.8_Radio_1.11.50.05.28_10.27.50.08L_release_301814_signed_2_4), has anyone a possible outcome to this situation in mind ?
[HTC One S] scforth:
I've never sent mine in for any repairs but I have sort of the same issue, which I am hoping someone here will be able to help me with. Here is how it goes:

I went from CM10.1 to CM10.2 and that's when the troubles started. I am on hboot 2.15.0000, S-ON, and no modifications to CID. It seems the earlier nightlies of 10.2 were worse for this EDGE problem then now, so I think it has something to do with the ROM. tried every radio under the sun. I realise this is not the development area but anyways...

Back a while ago, the H+ would never, ever connect and i had to force the phone to EDGE. Now I can use the H+ but after a while (i dont have an exact time) of use (webpages, facebook, ingress, etc.) the H+ will go down to 3G and stay for a bit, then the 3G icon will disappear and only the reception icon will be visible and blue, and then finally it changes to grey. appx. 10 seconds later the H+ and blue icons return and normal data connection resumes.

Has anyone ever experienced anything like this, have a solution, or can link me to a thread with a solution? I have searched long and hard but could never find anything exactly like this.
[HTC One S] GabeyC:
Exactly the same problem as mine. Still haven't figured out a way to fix it, haven't got time to try the RUU method, although I am quite uncertain about it.
[HTC One S] scforth:
I figured it out finally.
[HTC One S] scforth:
See attached.

Tons of searching about this issue led me to the "build.prop fix". Don't have the link but I'll give you the short story.

Edit build.prop in your /system folder.

1. Change ro.ril.fast.dormancy.rule from 1 to 2.

2. Add the following lines:

ro.ril.hsdpa.category=24

ro.ril.hsupa.category=6

ro.ril.hsxpa=4

3. Hit save.

4. Reboot.

5. Let me know if this helped you and hit the thanks button! If it didn't work let me know as well.

I haven't looked into what these settings actually do because I was so sick of dealing with it.
[HTC One S] add114:
I'm followed step 1 and add followed line then reboot

I found same problem, the number in ro.ril fast dormancy rule is "1" not change to "2"

I'm used root browser for edit value
[HTC One S] scforth:
Well, can you explain what the values mean to me? Mine was "1" then I changed to "2". Since I added other things it could be the first step didn't do anything for me but I would like to understand what happens here
[HTC One S] scforth:
To check this, I went back and reverted my build.prop ro.ril.fast.dormancy.rule to 1, saved, rebooted. Problems with data returned. I can only conclude that 1 makes it worse.
[HTC One S] add114:
I had aldready change value from 1 to 2 then save overwrite it.

After reboot I'm still edge connection, so i'm check build.prop file

It still same value 1, not change to 2 after save and reboot
[HTC One S] GabeyC:
I've been able to get a bit of H+ but it's not constant, not sure it's related to that though...

back to the problem :)
[HTC One S] scforth:
Its strange but has to be related to this build.prop or something similar because mine has improved. It seems like the battery drains quicker though. Who knows :(
